You know that saying where young girls are “sugar and spice and everything nice?”

Complete load of crap.

Of course I’ve known this to be true ever since my 12 year old bootingtocks would get chased home by a gang of cheerleaders each and every day after school. Let me tell you something, there’s a reason some girls like to grow their fingernails long, and it has nothing whatsoever to do with cosmetics.

Though I have to admit, I’ve never gone up against the kind of ferocity such as what happened there in Florida (it’s always Florida too.) It wasn’t just watching this poor girl getting beat down by a mob of flip-flop wearing teens that I found so disturbing (along with the painful memories it brought back), but just how coldly calculated it all was. They basically kidnapped her, brought her to the house, then had a throwdown while look-outs were stationed outside to make sure no one interrupted the beating.

If you ask me, that seems to be an appropriate rite of passage a teenage girl might take if she wanted to be a divorce attorney someday, except that the morons here videotaped the whole thing and were actually planning to upload the vid to YouTube. No wonder people refer to the state as Floriduuuuuuh.

All because somebody supposedly dissed somebody else on a MySpace page (of course.)

Oh, by the way, if you’re reading this and you happen to have a MySpace page, you suck and I hate you. I don’t care if I don’t know anything else about you, I hate you, hate you, hate you, even if you gave me a million dollars I’d still hate you (I’d keep the money though.)

There’s nothing quite as hilarious as watching a bunch of Cowgirls fans bawling their eyes out over their upset loss to the Giants, even if it is in jest:

I don’t expect that the Giants will be able to pull off another upset victory against Green Bay next week, but fortunately I happen to like the Packers, and after the kind of year Brett Favre’s had, the man has earned it.

Well this is an interesting concept: a new media network called ChatterJam.com is offering word of mouth services for companies who want to sell goods to a Christian demographic, and who are also looking for valuable feedback on their products. Members of ChatterJam (called Jammers) would receive and test sample products before they are released to the general public, then offer up their impressions and opinions. Membership is free too.

It sounds like fun, and if anything it would give Christians a chance to positively influence and promote faith based markets. And not a moment too soon, since heaven knows any new Christian dating site that gets launched in the future would certainly benefit from my input. :-D

Yep, we’re smarter, deal with it.

Update: Uhhhh, then again, maybe not:

Recently, a blogger named Simon Owens ran a social experiment on Craigslist. He wandered into the “Casual Encounters” section of the personal ads where countless men and women were soliciting for no-strings-attached {chicken dances} and wondered, Is it really that easy? As a test, he composed several ads with different permutations of assumed identity and orientation…. He then posted it to New York, Chicago, and Houston, and tallied the results.

Overwhelmingly and instantly, the ads from the fake women looking for male partners were inundated with responses, sometimes several per minute. All the other ads received lukewarm responses, at best. These results weren’t surprising, but some of the observations were… Many of these men used their real names and included personally identifiable information, including work email addresses and home phone numbers. Several admitted they were married and cheating on their spouses. Many included photos, {often in their birthday suits.}

As the Orbit White gal would say: Brilliant!

I didn’t link to the original post because the links that followed were quite graphic and disgusting. And here I thought my posting a profile on eHarmony was pathetic. Nyet, nyet.
